Here’s a much shorter version of the article:
Pete Hegseth’s nomination for Defense Secretary faces controversy after a 2018 letter from his mother, Penelope Hegseth, accusing him of misconduct resurfaced. On Fox News, Penelope disavowed the letter, calling it an angry response to his contentious divorce and criticizing the media for using it against her son. She stated her family is now “very close.”
Hegseth, under scrutiny for past allegations of harassment and poor judgment, has faced criticism from Republican senators. President-elect Trump is reportedly considering Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis as a potential replacement.
